As we are learning this week in our story "My Diary From Here to There", a diary can be a way to collect your psersonal thoughts and feelings. Writing about what goes in our lives helps us reflect and understand our feelings. Think about a day that was very important in your life. Hop in your time machine and go back to that day to write a diary entry reflecting on what happened. Make sure to describe your feelings using descriptive adjectives.
Today was the thrill of a lifetime! I accomplished my goal and graduated with honors from Clemson University. I have worked so diligently for this day, and am proud of the diploma that I can now hang on my wall. My parents, sister, and grandparents were all there in the audience beaming with pride, snapping pictures, and hollering when I crossed the stage. Now that I have earned my college degree I feel a little uneasy about the future. Will I get a job right away? Where will I live? Does this mean I have to start saving for retirement? Oh boy, I better start working on my job applications and resume!

Dear old diary,
Something horrible just happened today! My hamster, Rosy, just died because she got old and couldnt knaw on the food so her teeth grew long! After per-school I had came home from another playful day until my mom had given us the news. My sister Kenzie and I were balling on the carpet bringing us down to our knees. My heart started pounding and I became sweaty. We asked where Rosy was and Mom said Dad had already been buried deeply into the golf course that our house was sitting on. We screamed and hollered and screeched of angry. My parents reminded us that she was still here in our hearts even though we couldn't physically see her. Rosy was a good hamster and was unlike the others. She was small, too. I think I now understand how to deal with the death of my first pet. It was hard, but at least i know she's always here, even if she is underground. I have to go, dinners almost ready!

Dear Diary,
I just found out that my Mom has cancer. My Mom's friends have been trying to find the best doctor they could and have been researching about it. Everyone was also willing to help my sister Kenzie and I with offering us to come to their houses while my parents are gone. They said that they would help clean our house, too. My Mom would be gone for a couple of weeks getting blood tests and surgeries done to get the cancer out of her body immediately. I cried about it and worried the second I found out. I knew that my Mom was going to be okay, but while sometimes I doubted that. What if she dies? At least I know that my Dad is going to be there in the hospital with Mom. This is a stressful situation for my family but with great friends, I think I can struggle a bit through it and turn out okay. I just hope that when my friend's find out, they won't be asking a lot of questions about it. When they do that, it gets me a teensy nervous and reminds me of the horrible situation.

Dear Diary,
Today I won school president! On the intercom they announced secretary, vice president, and president! I was delighted to hear that I won because I worked hard for it. First, I got my motto and speech prepared, my hilarious motto was "let's build a better Butler bear." Then I practiced my wonderful speech many times while beaming. Next I recorded the speech with Mrs. Goldstien's iPad. Lastly, we voted and about everybody in my class surprisingly voted for me! I absolutely can't wait for my first meeting!

Dear Diary,
We are at the hospital right now. My dad just got his hand burnt by sparklers on the sandy beach. It looked awful when it happened. The nurse was very sweet though. Speaking of sweet, she brought my sister and I orange popsicles. When the doctor strolled in, he said, ''whoa nelly that's a burn''. The doctor gave my dad some medicine and in a couple of weeks, my dads hand got much better.

Dear diary, I woke up this morning ready to go! I was going on a Disney Cruise. I was excited as we walked down the stairs to the bus. I waited excitedly outside the hotel. It was a 4 day cruise. When the bus got there, I was upbeat and ready. "Whoa," I thought as we pulled up to the boat,"it looks amazing." I dashed out of the bus and made a break for the terminal. I waited for my family there, I was exuberant! We waited for two hours in the terminal to board the ship. When it was our turn, I sprinted to the line to get on the boat. When we all got on the boat and found our rooms we all ate lunch at the Enchanted Garden resteraunt. Afterwards we went to deck 11 to swim and ride the Aquaduck watercoaster. It swings you left and right, up and down, and every which way. After that exciting day we all got ready to eat dinner at the Animator's Palate resteraunt. After dinner we all played mini-golf on Goofy's Sports deck. We had a great time. With that we all went to bed and got ready for the next day.

Dear Diary,
Today I had to do a rollercoaster called "Flying School" When I was next in line I was sweating and had a million butterflies in my stomach. Then we sat in a seat that was not touching the ground, it was attached to a line up above. I buckled myself in and put a foam thing in front of me. I hoped they would never start it. A lady pushed a button and shouted "have a good time!" I wanted it to stop immediately. Then we were off. There was a lot of really fast turns and the part where we went down made my stomach drop. I was screaming like crazy. When we were done, I screamed "That was awesome!" I felt so relieved and I wanted to do it again. That was the time I rode a rollercoaster and wasn't afraid.

The most important day of my life was when I moved from Mexico it was very upsetting because we had to leave our family, I had mixed feeling. I was upset but happy. I was happy because I was finally going to move somewhere else. I thought learning a new langue was going to be super hard. But it was pretty easy but it took hard work. I didn’t know nothing from the United States I was super scared it took us 2 days and a half. We crossed threw 5 states. And we arrived in midnight on a Tuesday. That the most important day of my life.

Dear Dairy,
Today I am at Disney land and today is the last day because my sister is sick. I am going to spend the day with my dad riding on rides. For example, the magic carpet ride. We went on a monorail. When the day was over we packed up our bags and jumped into the car to leave. It's a day I'll never forget.
